Thank you so much for joining the Feminist Hackathon! The energy, creativity, and brilliance you brought to the room were absolutely incredible and inspiring. Our turn-out far exceeded our expectations when we first conceived of the idea, further proving that we are all hungry for positive change. Whether or not you were able to participate, or if you could only make one of the sessions, you helped make the event a success.
We set out to answer the question of how we take our power back, and you showed up ready to work. From the bold messaging and guerrilla tactics to the amazing zines and new connections, collectively we demonstrated exactly why women are the most powerful voting bloc in the country.
You came, you collaborated, and you definitely didn't need to write a single line of code to make an impact.
Let's keep the momentum going. Here are your next steps:
-
- Once you’ve requested your ballot, make sure you reach out to get three friends registered and to request their ballots. Here is the link.
- Join our team! We’ve got some big ideas for the next quarter. Fill out this volunteer form.
- Consider donating - getting out the vote is not free!
- Follow us on social media.
Many of the sessions were recorded and will be available on our YouTube channel in the upcoming days. If you would like to review a session you missed, please tune in and watch. We are eager to hear your feedback.
The documentary film, “Preconceived” is available for viewing throughout the month of March 2026 at this link. You have the option to download the film, watch a 1 hour, or 90 minute version. Please feel free to share with others.
And finally! Don’t miss our upcoming events:
Tuesday, March 17, 2pm ET/7pm CET: Trad Wives: Rebranding the Patriarchy. You think Trad Wives is a stand alone lifestyle phenomenon? Think again - there’s a clear line between so-called Trad Wives and Turning Point, USA and Project 2026. This is all part of the take-over of Christian Nationalism. They have come out of the shadows and into the mainstream. This event will feature Sara Wiles, who was the keynote at our Feminist Hackathon. RSVP.
COMING SOON - two popular rooms from the Feminist Hackathon - please check GWC'S events page for RSVP date and time!
- How Power Works and How Do We Get It Back, with Angela Fobbs
- Voting in the Age of Misinformation, with Ada Shen
The midterm elections are in the fall. You’d be surprised to learn how many voters still don’t realize it is a federal election or that they can vote at all. Many don’t even know how. We call on you to help us reach every voter. And while they work to overwhelm us with news, misinformation, wars and other distractions, let’s do our best to hold each other up and make some noise. Consider adding a link to Phonebank Training and Voter Assistance Training
Thank you for your time, your brain, and your unapologetic power. Let’s do this.
In solidarity,
